Converting my "normal" CC to a Roland Garros..

Hi,

1,5 ago I bought a silver Peugeot 206CC 1,6. After I saw the new Roland Garros (RG) I would like to convert my car to this one. The changes I am thinking for now are:
1) Changing the front lower grills or mask to a silver one like the one that RG has.
2) Painting the front, back side plastic bumper from black to silver.
3) Changing my 15" alloys and tyres to 16" alloys and new larger tyres.

What do you think?
How much would you estimate I shoud pay?

thanks in advance
Yannis

I would say if you're buying new wheels you should probably get 17" aftermarket rather than 16" peugeot wheels, the rest of the stuff isnt really Roland Garos specific is it?

Hows about Â£1200 sound?

yeah, i'd say that 17" after marker wheel will look far better than 16" Peugeot wheels. If ur wanting the wheels to look big i'd go for some spoked wheels which go to the edge of the alloy and make the rims look bigger. Something like the Kahn- RSS (the same as mine) or something similar depending on how much ur wanting to spend!

it won't look anything like a RG - just an SE with chrome grill and colour coded with a smaller engine

Hmmm my thoughts exactly!! Wounldn't you have to spray it green too?

But defo go for at least 17" wheels

No, take look at my nr. that's how a RG looks like.
Just 16" ouragans, green (or the new light silvergreen

),
but it's the interior which makes it special imo, not the outside...
And that's gonna cost you some money i reckon...
